This commit upgrades gRPC to protobuf v25.0 and makes some fixes to
account for upb changes. One major change is that upb has been merged
into the protobuf repo, so we can now drop the separate `@upb`
dependency. Another is that `.upb.c` files no longer exist and there are
new `.upb_minitable.h` and `.upb_minitable.c` files. The longer
filenames exceeded a Windows restriction, so to work around that I
renamed the `upb-generated` directory to just `upb-gen`, and likewise
for `upbdefs-generated`.
With some delay, this is a PR for
https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/32564 (and previously
https://github.com/grpc/grpc/pull/31791).
I looked into adding a regular `py_test` for this change [as
suggested](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/pull/31791#issuecomment-1423245116)
but I am not aware of any effect that the presence of a .pyi stub file
would have at runtime and where some sort of type-checking in a .py
script would be affected. Stub files are only for use by type checkers &
IDE's. I mean, something like this would work:
```
import helloworld_pb2
py_file = helloworld_pb2.__file__
pyi_file = py_file + 'i’
self.assertTrue(os.path.exists(pyi_file))
```
But that seems really hacky to me. Instead I created a simple rule test
for `py_proto_library` with Bazel Skylib which tests the declared
outputs for an example `py_proto_library` target. Indirectly, this also
tests that the declared output files are actually generated. Please let
me know if this is sufficient.
The very non-trivial upgrade of third_party/protobuf to 22.x
This PR strives to be as small as possible and many changes that were
compatible with protobuf 21.x and didn't have to be merged atomically
with the upgrade were already merged.
Due to the complexity of the upgrade, this PR wasn't created
automatically by a tool, but manually. Subsequent upgraded of
third_party/protobuf with our OSS release script should work again once
this change is merged.
This is best reviewed commit-by-commit, I tried to group changes in
logical areas.
Notable changes:
- the upgrade of third_party/protobuf submodule, the bazel protobuf
dependency itself
- upgrade of UPB dependency to 22.x (in the past, we used to always
upgrade upb to "main", but upb now has release branch as well). UPB
needs to be upgraded atomically with protobuf since there's a de-facto
circular dependency (new protobuf depends on new upb, which depends on
new protobuf for codegen).
- some protobuf and upb bazel rules are now aliases, so `
extract_metadata_from_bazel_xml.py` and `gen_upb_api_from_bazel_xml.py`
had to be modified to be able to follow aliases and reach the actual
aliased targets.
- some protobuf public headers were renamed, so especially
`src/compiler` needed to be updated to use the new headers.
- protobuf and upb now both depend on utf8_range project, so since we
bundle upb with grpc in some languages, we now have to bundle utf8_range
as well (hence changes in build for python, PHP, objC, cmake etc).
- protoc now depends on absl and utf8_range (previously protobuf had
absl dependency, but not for the codegen part), so python's
make_grpcio_tools.py required partial rewrite to be able to handle those
dependencies in the grpcio_tools build.
- many updates and fixes required for C++ distribtests (currently they
all pass, but we'll probably need to follow up, make protobuf's and
grpc's handling of dependencies more aligned and revisit the
distribtests)
- bunch of other changes mostly due to overhaul of protobuf's and upb's
internal build layout.
TODOs:
- [DONE] make sure IWYU and clang_tidy_code pass
- create a list of followups (e.g. work to reenable the few tests I had
to disable and to remove workaround I had to use)
- [DONE in cl/523706129] figure out problem(s) with internal import
